right now i am typing feverishly away in an internet cafe in MOMBASA! the Ventners (check out their holiday pics at www.ventersinkenya.blogspot.com) have been extremely kind to me and invited me on their holiday to Mombasa, a way was opened up to them to spend a week in a resort for missionaries which happens to be right on the beach. this was a surprise for Timothy, Joy and Stephanus, who all thought that they were going to stay for a few days somewhere much nearer to home. so the exciting secret has been well kept but Wilco, Lydia and Maki. SO many times it almost slipped out but luckily it was only when we were actually 300km away from the destination that Joy started to question just how far away these friends we were visiting did stay, and that Stephanus was recognising trees from the time that they went a few years ago that the secret was spilled. what an exciting secret eh!
so the place we are staying is great, we have a whole house from which you can look out to the sea and walk into the sea. the place has been set up for missionaries to take a break at so it does have a few funny rules such as no bikinis (i've been wearing a vest on top of mine) but is so peaceful, has a games room, three bedrooms, A SHOWER, fridge, cooker etc.
we are very much in luxury and i feel very privileged to be sharing this experience with the family.

good to know you're having fun at the beach. It will have been good to see a contrasting area of Kenya and a holiday is good before the final flurry of seeing everyone. Looking forward to seeing you soon. Mumx
